Class-The Dark Side Bead Embroidery – Sat, July 21, 10-4pm

Nora Pero is the instructor and she will guide you through the process of bead embroidery in this easy and fun class.

Techniques included in this class: peyote bezeling, back stitch bead embroidery, brick stitch edging, and a picot accent.

The kit is required and included in the class fee. The kit has all supplies, including the chain and a clasp.(Please note: actual kit contents and colors may vary slightly due to availability)
The project is designed for the polymer clay skull. (The skull may not be to everyone’s taste, so an optional face can be substituted in the kit.)
